From today's online Times Pic:

Quote:
According to HUD:

-- SUNO will use its money to set up distant-learning opportunities for students still displaced by the storm, as well as housing for returning students and information for rebuilding eastern New Orleans and the Lower 9th Ward.

-- Xavier's grant will help Hollygrove, Gert Town and Treme residents, as well as community-service projects and help in razing and clearing ruined homes.

-- Tulane will develop a design and construction program that will be a center for reconstruction projects. "


I realize part of this is going to require the School of Architecture's assistance, but wouldn't this also require the Civil Engineering Department? If I am not mistaken isn't that a program Coward is cutting??????

How can we have a design and construction program without ENGINEERS?????
